Location

There are many reasons why Lexden is so desirable, including its proximity to the city centre and good, local, independent shops. It offers sizeable homes, interesting architecture, and good access to outdoor spaces. Both Hilly Fields and Lexden Park have been declared nature reserves and have some old parkland and mature woodland adjoining a wildflower meadow and an ornamental lake. The house is just five minutes' walk from Crouch Street, with its excellent delicatessen, and is in the catchment area of some of the best schools in the country.
